1. 1熱鬧的、氣氛很旺的(雜誌、評論常用,不是課本詞)

    If a place or a night is buzzy, it feels alive: many people, much talk, something going on. A new café can be buzzy on a Friday; a quiet library is not. and magazines like the word. It is informal, a little fashionable, not a textbook adjective. Though actually, buzzy can also mean 'making a buzz sound', like an insect by your ear, but the sense here is the exciting-atmosphere one. It is buzz plus -y: full of that busy, humming energy. We say it of rooms, streets, openings, and online scenes more than of one still person. If you only need one picture, think of a shop that has just opened and already has a queue and a lot of chatter.

組成buzz (excited energy, or a busy hum) + -y (full of that).
